    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Bought a Switch for my boy (9yr old). The controllers and small screen are both better than I expected in terms of both build and usability. I wouldn't rush to buy it though mainly because of price and what's included with the console game wise (nothing). Unless you have a burning desire to...

    Black Desert

    I'd recommend against trying this game out unless you have loads of self control. Otherwise you will spend $700 trying to roll enhanced pets that loot mobs for you at a decent enough rate, then moving on to a different game a week or two later.

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    We were worldfirst throughout GoD. It was soul destroying - just brutal. Most of the guild burnt out towards the end and we never did much in EQ again after that. That one decision to release a lvl 70 tuned expac with a lvl 65 player cap was a massive factor in EQ1s demise what with the timing...

    Past changes to inventory include increasing its size, auto sort and ability to search for an item and be told which inv slot or retainer inv slot its in. Skills are being overhauled across the board, partly to reduce rotation complexity, in the new expansion in June. Expansion also includes...

    VPN advice and recommendations

    Yeah it's crazy stuff. Not only can they access all this the new law allows them to hack your computers, tablets, mobile phones etc etc : 'Snooper's charter' bill becomes law, extending UK state surveillance

    VPN advice and recommendations

    I was just coming here to start a similar thread. The UK passed a law last week that means every department of Government can look at anyones browsing history etc. IP providers have to harvest this information and supply it to the Government. Do folks think just using a VPN will block their...

    Doctor Strange (2016)

    Enjoyed it. Cumberbatch looks perfect as Strange but didn't think his accent was good. I was willing to give Tilda Swinton a go as the Ancient One but just no.

    Shroud Of The Avatar - Shit Went Persistent

    Looking at the date of this post you prolly figured out the following stuff but it might help someone else. Skill sets - you create what this game calls decks, which are just a chosen number of skills. Game is limited to 10 skill slots usable at one time. Press 'Y' to open the 'deck'...

    Board Games

    Robinson Crusoe : Adventures on the Cursed Island is a highly recommended co-op game. Mage Knight is great but is classic fantasy so might not be what your wife will enjoy. Bonus that both of these games are also great solo play.

    X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

    Took the kids today. Didn't like the 'young X-men' thing but suspect they just wanted to set up a cast they could use for the next 15 years. I bet they're all tied in to multiple film contracts. Script for Scott sucked and I hate when they play with lore. They may as well have not bothered...

    Everquest - Bristlebane Server

    As Tuco knows, I'm from Bristlebane. Made the mistake of transferring to Firiona Vie years back. I was in AO for a few years so I knew Eyashusa (original). Arwyn of RoV is a decent person who has led them for many years, Waylander was a different person who set up Ring of Valor back in '99...

    MTG thread

    EDH and casual/kitchen table are by far the biggest market in the hobby. Also EDH players tend to not swap cards between decks, so they will often own multiple copies of chase cards. Plus they also tend to not sell single cards out of a deck. Crypt is a good card in a lot of EDH decks as well as...

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    I always played a few months a year but I haven't touched it since they nerfed head shot, SK damage shields/mass pulling etc. How long has it been since then ? The devs just never understood what players liked about the game and kept trying to push people into the latest content.
